This cave house was our grand parents' house. When they left from this world, we started to renovate this fairy chimney. It has 1 double bed, and 4 single bed inside. There is a big kitchen, a bathroom with a bathtub and a big garden. From the garden you can see the biggest fairy chimney of Cappadocia- Ortahisar Castle and the old stone houses of the village.

This place is perfect for a large group as there are so many places to sleep. It's rather traditional overall so expect a rustic experience with a modern bathroom. There were some problems getting hot water but it wasn't a big deal, the area uses a lot of solar powered energy and this is a very positive thing. The location is just lovely and very peaceful. It was a bit dusty, but it's a cave after all! Loved the roses in the garden. It really felt like a family place with a long history.

We fell in love with this cave home from the moment we unlatched the gate to the charming garden overlooking Ortahisar. The home was cool, very clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a lovely experience in an interesting location. Everyone was very helpful in arranging shuttles to and from the airport, a rental car, etc. Thank you for the awesome Cappadoccia memories! We highly recommend this location :)

What an amazing place to spend Christmas! The cave house includes a warm sitting room, a bathroom and bed spaces on two levels. It worked for our group of a family of four plus another couple, but doesn't offer a lot of privacy. The temperature was below zero most of the time we were there - we enjoyed relaxing by the heater in the sitting room. The heat was on in the rest of the cave, and it gradually got warmer each day inside. That being said, we were comfortable and slept well under the duvets. The floor was warm and the shower had plenty of hot water for multiple showers before bed. A caretaker checked on the heating system daily. The cave has a lovely view of a castle and the village. A short walk up the hill leads to the town that has a few grocery stores and two restaurants. We were able to catch a bus or taxi from up in the village. My Turkish speaking brother-in-law travelled with us, which helped immensely with transportation and ordering food. We were able to cook breakfast and a dinner in the cave house. Knowing how to say the name of the village is important to get transportation back from Goreme. Hayrettin arranged transportation for us from and to the airport, as well as a trip to the underground city and a balloon ride. We ran into him every time we walked through the village and he always checked on our needs. If you are interested in staying in a cave house in a quiet village, then I highly recommend staying here. If you want to stay close to restaurants and shopping, this not the place for you. We had a lovely time - would love to see it in the summer!

In the heart of Cappadocia, Ortahisar Village, which has been a homeland for Hittites, Persians, Romans, Byzantines, Seljuks, Ottoman Empire since 1800 BC’s, Anitya caves had remained from this rich history.The house is near the center of village (5 min.) where the ‘Ortahisar Castle’ is located,which has been digged by Hittities (around 1600 BC)

Staying at Anitya was incredible. The house was exactly as it appears in the photos and very comfortable. It was well located in a beautiful town with beautiful people. The property manager Koray was extremely friendly and always went out of his way to be helpful! I would definitely recommend that you stay at Anitya and the balloon rides are a must.

The Anitya Stone House was the perfect place for our 4 day stay in Cappadocia. It's in a smaller village/town to neighbouring areas so is much less touristy and provides, we thought, a more authentic experience of local life. The House was beautifully decorated and very comfortable. We loved the outdoor terrace and the views were stunning! Feliz and Kerem were really helpful before we arrived - they organised an amazing hot air balloon ride for us and communication was great. Their friend Koray really looked after us throughout our stay, with suggestions of things to do and the actual bookings. We couldn't have asked for more attentive hosts. We'd very much recommend this place if you're spending a few nights in the region!

Awesome apartment, awesome host. it had everything we needed and in fact exceeded our expectations. the patio outside is huge and is a great place to hang out. Despite looking like a charming ancient area, the amenities would match any new developments. hot water was not an issue, internet speed was great, and the tap produced clean drinking water. I would highly recommend it to any potential guests.

Our place is located in the historic village of Ortahisar, in Cappadocia. Once a traditional village Cave home with the modern comfort authentic charm offering just six cosy cave rooms all individually styled.

Our hotel is far away from the crowded places where provides such a quiet atmosphere in the middle of nature. On the other hand, we are 3 km far away from the Goreme open air museum as well as the other must see places such as hiking paths. Also, you can reach the shopping centres and bank ATMs with a short distance walking.

The Elaa cave hotel in Ortahisar was breathtaking from the get go. When we arrived we were welcomed with a friendly smile and a run down on where things were in the communal area, breakfast times and shown up to the roof terrace which boasts some beautiful views of the village. The hosting was impeccable from all of the staff and communication with Cem was great, who was able to organise us a hot air balloon ride, taxi's and gave us recommendations on where to eat. Our room was fanstatic! Full of character, yet modern and luxurious it was cosy and warm for a cave! We would certainly recommend the Elaa and Cem to anyone who is considering a trip to Cappodocia.

Mustafa has a huge heart and is a giving man! He made us breakfast, and gave us all the conversation we could want. He happily turned on the internet each morning and evening for us. The room had the bathroom within it, which was convenient. He is very knowledgeable about activities and prices in the area. He was very kind to ask us if we minded him smoking. He has the gift of gab and we loved it.

Mustafa is very knowledgeable about the capacoccia area and was very helpful with advice with tours. He picked us up from the bus stop and took us to his house which was appreciated. His breakfasts were good and we loved his home grown apples. The room was comfortable though the bathroom was very small and uncomfortable. He had internet though it was very slow. It is best to hire a car to see everything as tours are ridiculously expensive.

Aydin and Emma provided me every information I needed to enjoy the landscape of Cappadocia. They were superb hosts all the time, offering me a drive to the bus station or to share dinner with them! Overall I really had a great time at their place and hope to see the two of them again.

Staying at Aydin's home was the best choice we could make to make this trip a living and unforgettable one. Aydin is a curious and warm person, eager to help his guests discover the country he loves and share moments with them, but he always let us very free. We had almost all meals together, Aydin is a great cook, and we had fun. Moreover Aydin proposed to take us on "his tour" of Cappadocia and we also hiked together. The places Aydin showed to us were by far the most beautiful we saw. Finally, living in Aydin's old and traditionnal house in Ortahisar, which has not yet be conquered by shops for tourists like Göreme, made us feel like guests, not like tourists... Aydin, thanks for the great time we had!

Our place is a cozy yet luxury and extremely comfortable village that was converted into a boutique property due to our huge passion for architecture and antique pieces.
We bought this area years ago when all you could see were dirty millenarian caves full of mold but also full of history. The restoration process took time but in the end we couldn't be prouder of the results!
